Looks like his ancestors participated in the Inbreeder’s Cup.

As an example, we haven’t seen a new, proper, Warcraft RTS since 2002.

To be fair, a lot of fans worried that they would never see another proper TES and would just get more of the MMO and ANOTHER Skyrim re-release.

I watched Caddyshack and...quite frankly didn’t get why it was so beloved. Some of Rodney Dangerfield’s lines are great and Bill Murray and the groundhog got some slapstick laughs from me...but the rest fell flat.

Except “limited time” is designed exactly to hit certain manipulative sweet spots in the brain. The random nature of lootboxes is still designed to go after gambling addicts. Just because you don’t find them manipulative doesn’t mean there isn’t some poor souls out there that spent way too much on Overwatch lootboxes.…

I mean...why not just say “hey, we don’t really have anything to announce at Blizzcon this year so tickets are cheaper and it’s mostly just for fun this year”?  I mean, I know why, money, but still...not great optics from a PR standpoint.

No no, that’s exactly why they’re so upset. The guys at Blizzcon payed $200+ to be there and because they like to play PC games, they release this game is aimed at China. Releasing a mobile ripoff for China would probably go over without too many grumbles if it was some sort of small announcement, but this was part of…

I don’t understand the pivot to mobile games. The ones that rake in cash are exploitative, and that’s not something Blizzard wants to associate with.

Put this in perspective: Every single person in that room spent $200+ to see this.  Tickets to Blizzcon are $199 + relevant taxes and fees.  Many of these folks flew in to California to see this so add in hotel and plane tickets.  These are the most hardcore of the hardcore Blizzard’s PC game fans, they aren’t going…

Hearthstone started on PC, then went to mobile.

The fact is that those long hours they’re putting in...are useless. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/jonathan-chan/3-scientifically-backed-r_b_14509568.html There are dozens of studies that have looked at working long hours and they’ve found that you’re most efficient at 40 or fewer hours per week (some have said the…

1. Sure, there’s an argument that “I can do it myself”, but at the same time you really shouldn’t be doing stuff you aren’t trained and certified for, particularly in a high danger area like manufacturing automation. It’s inefficient...but it’s also (in theory), safer. You may be competent, but how many of your…

This is largely incorrect, unions have been smeared over decades by corporate (and in some instances government) propaganda. When workers are laid off the company blames the unions. It’s those darn union pensions that killed our company, not decades of mismanagement or a shifting economic landscape nor a decline in…

The ironic thing here is that Tom Clancy would hate this with a passion; he was racist against the Chinese something fierce. I suppose the money might have have mollified him, but I bet he’d be super pissy about it at the very least.

The fact is that unionizing is the only way that those that work on games can prevent abuse. A lot of folks have forgotten how important unions are in combating the worst excesses of capitalism; people lost careers for unions, lost families and friends over unions and even died for unions. Unions are the only reason…

I feel like Jadon Sancho is Pulisic’s replacement. Dortmund realize they probably can’t keep Pulisic forever and it’s probably best to get something for him either this winter or the following summer transfer window while the gettin’ is good.

To be fair, I don’t lobby to kill the Maryland football program. I’ve got bigger sights set: #DeathToTheNCAA

It’s an issue of time. Most young people are at college or scrambling working jobs that won’t give them time off to vote/provide PTO. You want to increase youth turnout? Make voting days national holiday. Or do what my state does: let people mail in their ballots.

Here’s the thing though: not only is severe overtime detrimental to mental and physical health, it’s also vastly inefficient. Most studies, such as this one:
